Alphabet picnic.

How to play

The first person brings an item beginning with A. The next repeats that item and adds something beginning with B. Continue together through the alphabet, helping each other rather than eliminating anyone. For difficult letters, allow a descriptive phrase such as “extra crunchy apples” for X. Try a theme like a picnic on the moon or lunch for friendly dragons. In a large group, stop after ten items and start again with a new theme. Solo version: write the list and recall it once without looking.

Make it your own

Start with one round and decide together whether you want another. Change the pace, take turns, or skip a prompt that does not fit your group. There is no account, public leaderboard, or pressure to keep playing.
